Brandon, love your interviews. You are one of the very best out there. You listen to your guests. Most do not. You are so natural at this. Thank you so much.
Hi Brandon Please bring this interviewee in for another conversation about mental training, coming back from vacation, coming back from injury, and coming back from burnout. I think he has a lot to say in this direction!
we need to bear in mind that we just can't "go to these places" too often in training. that's serious fatigue we're generating there. that costs, and we have to plan out our training to nudge it along. again, we can't just do race efforts all year round, we'll be in a bag. progressive overload is key. changing the type of intervals as the year moves along. once racing starts, training must change. recovery is key. grant is great, but be careful with the hammer. ride easy, a lot, ride hard a little. and if your a 200 watt ftp person, you don't need the same type of work as a 350 watt rider.
My personal problem with high intensity is that as soon as I touch it, I feel and go great, which makes me do more, then I burn out! Whereas, if I do low intensity, I'm ALWAYS ready to do the high intensity, and the high intensity is of a higher quality and bigger stimulus. I guess it depends if you're sympathetic dominant or parasympathetic dominant, and I'm definitely sympathetic dominant, so I have to spend much more time trying to calm down! Some people are the other way round, where they can finish a hard session, then have a nap! WTF! 😂
@@EVOQBIKE Found it Thanks!....and his answer was what I expected, as I live at 5500 ft and I can not sustain the expected power at 4 minutes either, so my longest intervals are 2 to 3 minutes. I thought this was just a weakness of mine, but he confirmed it and recommended breaking the intervals into 1 or 2 minutes but with the same total time under tension. Great interview!
I don't think you can train mental strength you are who you are goggins is mentally gifted mike tyson is not but tyson is a far better athlete than goggins everyone has what they have yet we try to get curly hair when we have straight hair 🤷🏽♂️

Hi Brandon

I'll add this to the list. in the meantime, this blog may be of some help! www.evoq.bike/blog/rebuilding-peak-fitness-after-time-off-or-injury
Best one yet!

In that 4x8 study, the TTE values looked very poor, like they were not trained much.
I would love to hear a conversation between this coach and another coach who strongly believes in data like the guy from Rodman Podcast

I don't understand Grant's comment: 4x4's not working if you live at altitude---anyone have an explanation for why not??
this comment was at 29:40 in the interview. BTW, I really enjoy watching the interviews on EVOQ!
he comments on this on our IG page a bit! can't recall his exact answer

35:32 what did he say here? "When you're going to-"
probably: going hard
